Replenishment system - Purchase or ?

Hi everyone,

First post here, still getting to know BC deeper :)

Installation:

- Standard Business Central

- Supply and Shortage orders add on from Abakion installed

- Multiple stockkeeping units

Question is, trying to run the add-on on our pre-assembly line stockkeeping unit, we get many "No Stock" shortage information.

Now, the process as I see it should be : Create a Firm order with location 2, and this should trigger some stock transfer from 1 (main Warehouse) to 2 (our temporary Warehouse-StockKeeping units) if I'm not mistaken.

On my main Stock I would have a Purchase to send signal to Procurement to place a PO if stock not sufficient (or under Safety Stock), and transfer would be made with available stock then ?

But what I feel is strange is that the replenishment of my component is setup as Purchase, may that be the reason why we get this issue or am I lost ?

The replenishment for your item in Location 2 should be transfer and Location 1 should be Purchase. The production order would trigger a transfer order to be created and once it is created, the system will trigger the creation of the PO where needed. It may be that one replenishment calculation will not do both suggestions as the transfer order for location 2 is not created the first time through.

Hello,

Thanks for the clarification, however even after creating a transfer from 1 to 2, I still have no luck.

It sees that I need those 20EA as it deducts it from the 1000, but it doesn't the error code in the Firm planned order.

Thanks again for your help !
